In part one of my nostalgic trip to 1977 I recalled the sudden death of my father and how I shoved my rival out of the way in a race for my first true love's favour.

This one had Linda Blair from The Exorcist on the cover, and inside the first of a four-part series [...]
If to me 1974 coalesced with 1975, then 1976 was a year of some change. For one thing, I got my first cassette recorder, which would set me off on a career of illegal copier of music (as we now know, home-taping killed music, stone dead. If only we had known!).

The news came from a tweet from @ontheredcarpet , saying, "BREAKING NEWS: @oPRAH announces The Oprah Winfrey Show will end on September 9, 2011 after 25 years on the air". [...]

. This one is for all the laydees out there who like themselves a bit of man hunk: promo photos of 1970s dance bands in Sweden. Even if we elect to make allowance for the gung-ho crazy fashions of the day and the ill-judged exuberance with which Scandinavia's musical heart-throbs adopted these – and not only sartorially, but also in the domains of coiffure, facial hair and corrective eyewear –
